Poem
Gold on her head, and gold on her feet, And gold where the hems of her kirtle meet, And a golden girdle round my sweet; Ah! qu'elle est belle La Marguerite. Margaret's maids are fair to see, Freshly dress'd and pleasantly; Margaret's hair falls down to her knee; Ah! qu'elle est belle La Marguerite. If I were rich I would kiss her feet; I would kiss the place where the gold hems meet, And the golden kirtle round my sweet: Ah! qu'elle est belle La Marguerite. Ah me! I have never touch'd her hand; When the arrière-ban goes through the land, Six basnets under my pennon stand; Ah! qu'elle est belle La Marguerite. And many an one grins under his hood: Sir Lambert du Bois, with all his men good, Has neither food nor firewood; Ah! qu'elle est belle la Marguerite. If I were rich I would kiss her feet, And the golden girdle of my sweet, And thereabouts where the gold hems meet; Ah! qu'elle est belle La Marguerite. Yet even now it is good to think, While my few poor varlets grumble and drink In my desolate hall, where the fires sink,-- Ah! qu'elle est belle La Marguerite,-- Of Margaret sitting glorious there, In glory of gold and glory of hair, And glory of glorious face most fair; Ah! qu'elle est belle La Marguerite. Likewise to-night I make good cheer, Because this battle draweth near: For what have I to lose or fear? Ah! qu'elle est belle La Marguerite. For, look you, my horse is good to prance A right fair measure in this war-dance, Before the eyes of Philip of France; Ah! qu'elle est belle La Marguerite. And sometime it may hap, perdie, While my new towers stand up three and three, And my hall gets painted fair to see-- Ah! qu'elle est belle La Marguerite-- That folks may say: Times change, by the rood, For Lambert, banneret of the wood, Has heaps of food and firewood; Ah! qu'elle est belle La Marguerite.
